For the past few weeks I have been sooo itchy! Mainly my legs & arms. It seems like at first it was just after a shower. Now it is going on more often. I have tried lotions, oils, anii-itch cream& everything I can think of. Doc now has me taking Benadryl. I take it when I feel the itchies coming on with not much relief. Maybe I should take it more regularly? Anyone have any experience with this??
Re: Itchy Itchy Itchy
I switched to the Aveeno w/ green cap. That seems to have helped. I haven't changed laundry detergent so hmmm maybe fabric softener. I will check that out and see if maybe that is causing some issues.
It is weird I start to itch about an hour after going to bed and about an hour after waking up. So weird. Then some itching throughout the day but not the same kind of unbearable episodes.
My BF developed some kind of allergic (histamine) reaction to her pregnancies, it got progressively worse/earlier with each of them (she has three LOs) the only thing that helped was Benadryl. Apparently in very unusual situations you can become allergic to some or all of the hormones of pregnancy.
